On Top Of Things! A Cabin on a Rock By I-Kanda Architects

Over the past few months, there seems to be an uptick in contemporary architecture in the most rustic of settings. The trend continues today as we get a look at a beautiful home in the White Mountains. This unique design is known as A Cabin on a Rock By I-Kanda Architects, getting its name from the granite boulder in which it is anchored to. The home is a tiny version of the traditional alpine retreat, boasting a unique aesthetic that is balanced on nine concrete footings.

The small footprint and prefab construction provides minimal impact to the site, keeping the existing landscape intact in the process. The cabin combines timber and steel cladding on the exterior while wood planks line the interior, providing a warm contrast. The design also includes a 24-foot sliding glass wall that offers amazing views and ample natural light. Have a look at the eye-catching home in the images below and speak your thoughts on it after the jump. Stay tuned for much more from the world of architecture and design coming soon.
